Capabilities and competence
Sand Cast – gray and ductile iron of the following types to customer requirements and material standard.
- Flake Graphite and Nodular cast irons – alloyed and unalloyed.
- Alloyed irons for special service conditions requiring resistance to abrasion, corrosion and high temperature.
- Alloys with special compositions for application specific requirements such as SiMo, Ni-hard, Niresist, and Abrasion resistant Chromium alloyed white irons.
- Casting weights range from 300 grams to 5500 Kgs single piece in gray cast iron and to 2500 Kgs single piece in ductile iron.
Production process and systems
Moulding
- Gas cured resin binder system for cores (ecolotec).
- Liquid ester cured alkaline phenolic system for moulds (alphaset).
- Sand mixing by continuous mixer.
- Mould compaction with vibratory compaction tables.
- Sand reclamation plant 6MT per hour.
Melting
- Induction melting – with control instrumentation for melt composition, temperature and weight of charge and liquid metal
Process control And production systems
